For more than two months, I have been working on a truly horrific story about one of the gravest war crimes committed by the United States since Vietnam: The bombing of the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab, Iran. It was one of the first targets struck in the opening hours of the war on February 28, 2026.
At least 156 people were killed in the U.S. cruise missile strikes—120 of them were children and 26 were teachers. We spoke to survivors, first responders, parents, doctors, teachers, psychologists, and other witnesses. Some of them had never before shared their experiences of that day.
It would be impossible to do justice to what happened in Minab that day with words alone. In more than 25 years in journalism and reporting on war, I do not believe I have reported on a more heinous single crime.

Please share this story with as many people as you can.
We were honored to be represented at the "Voices for Peace" event at the @SchomburgCenter.
To @marcorubio and his enablers: YOU DO NOT OWN WHAT IT MEANS TO BE CUBAN.
We love our country. We love our people. And we will continue fighting for them. 🇨🇺
@haleyngreen___ It’s a very real blight on our diaspora, thankfully a growning number of us are pushing back on our family members (for example @Cubans4Cuba)
Do you know why you know the names of the
Cornell 7?
Because Cornell Daily Sun Editor-in-Chief Sophia Dasser ’28, Associate Editor Sophia Romanov Imber ’28 and Opinion Editors Zara Cheek ’28 and Rayen Zhou '29 conducted on-point reporting and then stood ten-toes down, stared their own university straight in the face, hit “publish” and said,
“Cornell Won’t, We Will.”
And signed their names to it...
Inde Navarrette to @Carlos_Film on the ‘Obsession’ memes painting Nikki as a tóxica:
"[It’s] sad that people took my [Mexican] pride and [said] ‘Let’s degrade this person’s experience.’ There's this idea that Latina women are so intense and so crazy... It did hurt my feelings.”
I still haven't seen Obsession but reading this profile gave me the same happy feeling as watching Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie last year. It's great watching someone catch the wave in their career
Imagine cutting off federal student loans for programs leading to careers overwhelmingly held by women.
Women make up:
• 80% of teaching assistants
• 81–84% of social workers
• 73–80% of counselors
• 79% of elementary/middle-school teachers
• 85% of special-ed teachers
• 92% of hairstylists/cosmetologists
• 93% of childcare workers
Yup, just a coincidence.
If you're caught up in a cycle where you keep dating emotionally unavailable people, fret not. You will reach a point where you get tired of it. Not even that, actually. It'll bore you.
